It's been two months since Jessica Simpson gave birth to daughter Maxwell Drew Johnson, and yet, according to fitness experts, she still looks to be at least 182 lbs. For a woman whose body has been a major part of her success, Jessica is traumatized by her surplus size. And friends say she has reached a breaking point in her struggle to lose the baby weight.
While no new mom should be expected to be superslim so soon after giving birth, Jessica, 32, is actually getting paid — to the tune of a reported $4 million — to shed 70 lbs. within a year: She inked a deal with Weight Watchers while she was expecting.
"Jess ate her way through the pregnancy, gorging on all her favorite junk foods," a friend says. "She just assumed, wrongly, she now realizes, that the weight would peel off. But it's not happening. She is freaking out."
Jessica's postbaby weight-loss routine includes regular workouts with trainer to the stars Harley Pasternak at Bodiworx Health & Fitness in Los Angeles as well as dieting. But friends say she's having trouble committing to both. After ballooning to more than 200 lbs. at the end of her pregnancy, she's finding the whole experience exhausting — and ineffective.

You really should have put this in Breaking News!
Who cares! Sheesh!
Stop eating so much, worked for me.
I placed it in the proper category
don’t read it - don’t comment...... Sheesh!
She’ll get a contract with Jenny Craig. Welcome to America. If ypu’re famous they pay you a million bucks for your wedding pictures, a million bucks for you newborn baby pictures and then when you get fat, they pay you a million bucks to lose weight. Sheesh.
Wow. Holy smokes! Bet Roma and Mayer and whatever other old flames she had are breathing a big ol’ sigh of relief.
Ever take a close look at Bart’s head? Now there is a REAL Simpson
body crisis.
Shiite!
I’ll drop 59 pounds for $1 million and I’ll do it in 4 months.
Put me in coach!
I saw a photo of her trying to get out of a car today... I'm traumatized, too.
How old am I? 46 years old and I have worked hard for everything I have. I also don't take god's grace for granted. He gave me this body and the tools to nurture it. So I do.
Is it easy? Not always but I feel better than eating junk, sitting on my ass and as a result wanting to kill myself and not fully live life.
We have so little time on this earth. Live it well.
Face it Jessica likes being a lazy pig. She just doesn't like the results. No one does. It is initially hard to make changes but they are worth it ten fold. Don't let the pain, withdrawals, and emotional backlash stop you from your greatness!
At 192 lbs I don't see how that's possible.
Sounds like she’s competing for the Kirstie Alley trophy
Calories-in vs. calories-out... make all the excuses you want, it all comes down to that.
Carb addiction is hard to break. But it can be done.
I also use nutritional yeast (NOT BREWER's YEAST!) on popcorn and Rawmansean on popcorn too. Deliscious and full of vitamins.
Yes - your body is what you eat
True dat traumer :-D. Hey sorry I lambasted in my post. I did not mean that for you but for anyone reading this thread that is struggling and needs some motivation to get their life back on track to greatness. I know there will be some ‘cause I’ve been there.
